![]() Saying this, the reverse challenge is to create an image which has rotational symmetry. In the photo below, you can use a mirror to clarify that the symmetry is indeed reflective rather than rotational. Photographing my dog gave the best illustration of the difference. But unless you target your feature carefully, it is unlikely to have rotational symmetry, even if the original feature has – as indicated by this lifebuoy station which has a rotational symmetry of 2. There will always be 3 lines of reflective symmetry. Also, there are more challenging activities to undertake which are probably suited to children in older classes.įor example, does the kaleidoscope app create photos which have rotational or reflective symmetry? This will really test a child’s peers of observation and understanding of rotational symmetry. For young children, this is the level I would be working at.Īs well as learning about photography and seeing features in a different way, other useful discussions may arise. ![]() With classes, group of children can have fun creating “pairs” of objects for others to match up or to play “snap” with. As I was at the beach, I went around photographing different features in a normal frame and a kaleidoscope one.Įven the most mundane features take on a new form and life when photographed through the kaleidoscope feature. ![]() I decided to undertake a very simple “Guess the Feature” activity.
